Can Schefflera be repotted in summer?

If you are changing from a small pot to a large pot, and the root ball does not move or moves very little, it is not affected by the season and can be changed in summer, but you should water it enough to help the roots take hold. However, if you want to remove the old soil and replace it with new soil, it is best to do so in late winter or early spring.

How to repot Schefflera chinensis

If you want to repot the Schefflera oleifera, you should first choose a potting soil rich in humus and put it in the pot. Do not water it for a few days in advance to allow the soil to dry, and then remove the plant from the pot.

During the repotting process, be careful to protect its roots to prevent them from getting hurt. After removing the old soil, trim the roots, remove the old and rotten roots, and place them in a cool place to dry. Then use disinfectant to sterilize them. After repotting, place them in a cool place to acclimate, and perform normal maintenance after the seedlings have grown.

Precautions for repotting Schefflera

1. The frequency of repotting the Schefflera arborvitae mainly depends on the size of the plant and the season. Generally, an adult Schefflera arborvitae needs to have its pot and soil replaced once a year on average.

2. The best time to replace the soil in the flowerpot is in spring and autumn, because the Schefflera octocarpus grows vigorously at this time, and the growth of the plant will not be affected by changing the soil or the environment.
